Fr Paul Farquharson as Prep School
SJ,
Prefect, took over Fr Redmond’s role until 1983, when
Mr Daniel McNelis was appointed Headmaster, the
first lay man to be put in such a position in the
college, a position he held until the final closure of the
Prep.
I971 saw the arrival of Frs Alan Mowbray and
SJ
Frank Buckley SJ. Both men played a significant role
in the formation of senior boys; Frank Buckley’s
lifelong love of art prompted his leadership of the trip
to Greece illustrated above, and the impression left on
the school by Alan Mowbray’s twelve years there is
outlined in Gonzaga at Sixty (p. 85).
